I get questions on offline installation quite often. People around here
don't necessarily have enough bandwidth so this is quite useful. I will
test more and report bugs if necessary. Can you look into making it
default in Rawhide post Fedora 11 release (no alpha for this release)
for broader testing?

I can look into this. Can you tell me what is required to implement it?
